Distant Learning

Published March 18, 2021

Parents I know you’re tired of “Distant Learning”, I know your child is tired of distant learning…
…when in reality they aren’t tired of distant learning they are tired of learning information they are not interested in!
Let me explain…
Last summer we hosted our annual Keys 2 Life Performing Arts Summer camp virtually due to the pandemic.
We had almost 100 young people log on daily from 9am-2pm only breaking for lunch. We even had students logging in so early they were beating the facilitators into the virtual space.
Once Camp ended there were students trying to recreate their camp experience with their peers in their own virtual space. Keep in mind this was in the summer time when the weather was nice.
So see it’s not the distance learning they are tired of, it’s that they’re not engaged with the information. You have to give them what they want.
Good news for you and your child, we are bringing Keys 2 Life back in the spring with a Workforce Development focus.
So not only are they going to learn the technical skills of song writing and music production your child will:
✅Learn The Basic Of Music Business
✅Write & Produce A Song
✅Record Song
✅Release Song & Distribute Nationally
✅Record Music Video
Participants will also receive:
✅Bio
✅Professional Head Shot
So if they decide to pursue a career in the music the industry they’ll have a leg up.
Participants will meet twice a week virtually for 12 weeks starting the week of April 4th and ending June 26th.
Enrollment is now open for young people ages 11-17 but space is limited.
✅ Added bonus for Wayne County MI residents. Your child may be eligible for a FULL SCHOLARSHIP and a CHROME BOOK or FIRE TABLET at no cost to you.
Enroll today, while space is still available click the link in the below to enroll or get more info. We hope to see your child virtually and we look forward to giving your child the keys 2 life.
